  • The present custom cabinet with bookcase is part of the restoration project of the 16th-century Villa of Cardinal Chigi in Ariccia, near Rome, executed in 1967 by the Roman Architects and Urbanists Group (G.R.A.U.). This project aimed to restore the villa while incorporating elements of Western architectural history, particularly influenced by perspective geometry and references to ancient and Baroque Roman architecture. The restoration project was meticulously planned with a focus on symmetry and adherence to historical architectural principles. One notable aspect of the project was incorporating furniture design in the overall architectural scheme. The furnishings were designed with a pervasive use of perspective design, drawing on Renaissance studies and referencing Michelangelo. The architects employed imaginary Cartesian lines to create grids within interior spaces, which informed the design of furniture. This approach resulted in furniture that exhibits an "architectural" character, blurring the lines between furniture design and spatial design. Gabriella Colucci and Franco Pierluisi, the architects responsible for the project, rejected the emerging divide between industrial design and architecture, viewing such a distinction as foreign to the Italian tradition of design. For them, furniture and spatial design were inseparable components of the overall architectural vision.
